Summary of the contracting process

Westminster City Council commissioned an environmental services assignment for an initial techno-economic and planning feasibility study concerning the SWAN Heating & Cooling Offer. The work is intended to assess the offer from technical, economic and planning perspectives, supporting the council’s understanding and development of heating and cooling provision. It is a professional advisory and feasibility service rather than construction, equipment supply or routine maintenance. Delivery is associated with Westminster City Council in London, with the stated address at 64 Victoria Street, SW1E 6QP. The procurement is categorised as services and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. Businesses with experience in energy, heating and cooling strategy, environmental assessment, infrastructure planning or related feasibility studies would recognise the requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 10 July 2026 at 17:00, and the award decision was dated 22 July 2026. Aecom Limited was selected for the contract at £59,600, inclusive of the stated contract value, and the award is active. The contract period runs from 20 August 2026 to 19 November 2026. The published procurement category is services, with the classification of environmental services. The available process information identifies the requirement as a single assignment rather than separate lots. The award reflects the completed selection outcome for the feasibility study.

This award indicates demand from Westminster City Council for specialist analysis of heating and cooling offers before investment or implementation decisions are made. A credible future competitor would need to combine technical understanding of heating and cooling systems with economic appraisal and planning knowledge. Relevant capability includes assessing options, costs, constraints, deliverability and wider environmental considerations, then presenting clear evidence for public-sector decision-making. Experience of preparing feasibility studies for energy or low-carbon infrastructure would be directly relevant. Suppliers should also be able to work within a framework call-off route and deliver a focused advisory assignment with sufficient analytical capacity. The opportunity is suitable for SMEs, so a smaller specialist consultancy with the right expertise could be well placed, either independently or within a suitably structured team.
